Noun. A banal thought terminating cliche used by boomers and boomer sympathizers to convey the failed "conventional wisdom" of their generation. These cliche sayings are typical political or economic in nature and are refutable by hard real-world evidence.
The burden of evidence required to refute a "boomerism" is often substantial, requiring reference to the CPI (Consumer Price Index), Wage Index, or other economic data available on FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data).
Millennials and Zoomers are too busy working their jobs as senior economic analysts, program directors, or serving coffee to pay off students loans, to refute boomerisms.
None the less, entitled boomers feel obliged to be provided with hours of high valued consulting work, at no cost, to disprove them. Millennials and Zoomers have adopted a strategy of responding to boomerism with the much less costly "Ok Boomer".
Boomer: "Well hello there youngster, what are you doing?"
40 y/o balding senior management wage slave: "Doing my taxes. It looks like I might be able to pay off my student loans and mortgage by the time I'm 83."
Boomer: "I see you are eating avocado toast there! You know, if you ate less avocado toast, and lived in a shoe, you could be free of debt by now!"
Waitress: "Now that's a boomerism, if I ever heard one."
40 y/o balding senior management wage slave: "Ok, boomer."
Boomer: "STOP! Ok Boomer is the new N-word!"

An ideology which promotes the discrediting of ideas from any person or entity that disagrees with one's preconceived beliefs, regardless of their source's credibility. It is a common ideology among the "Baby Boomer" generation, born between 1946 and 1964, hence the title "Boomerism".
So many young people's ideas are shot down today without a second thought despite the fact that it will ultimately be their job to fix the issues created by the same group that is largely still in power; what a blatant display of Boomerism!
